Maybe instead of trying to place blame on others for how the white race is perceived, they should look within. Something within the white community & culture has to change before anything in society in general will. Maybe parents should do a better job of raising their kids so they don’t turn into the kind of people who think that killing someone is a justifiable response to excessively loud music. As long as the stereotype exists that white people violently over-react with deadly force, nothing will change. I’m totally talking about this shooting in particular, but also how other races view whites bc of stereotypes perpetuated in their own communities. That type of macho thinking where whites think they’re invincible, that they can do what they want without consequence, & nothing will ever happen to them has got to stop.

“He claims in Ken’s model, that means there could have only been 170 winter-summer season cycles” should read “He says that if Ken’s model is to believed, there would have to have been (on average) 170 winter-summer cycles per year, every year.”

She said she was divorced at 19, when the truth is she was merely separated at 19, but not legally divorced. Yeah, that’s not the truth, but if that’s the biggest lie you can find on her, good luck on trying to make her look bad.

“A total of 1058 moved on, which is only about .1% of the over 100,000 applicants.”Actually, unless “over 100,000 applicants” means “nearly one million applicants”, 1058 is probably only 1% of the total number of applicants.

Reteach the lessons on the Indian Removal Act, hahahah. I mean, clearly the kids already learned what the Trail of Tears was, that’s how they were able to reference it on their banner. They don’t need lessons in Native American history, they need lessons in how not to be assholes.

“We have laws, and we need to follow those laws, because the USA has never, ever had laws that needed to change. Nope, not once, not ever. No, really, I can’t think of one instance in the history of the USA of a law that has been changed. What’s that? You can list plenty of laws that have been changed? You can list laws that have changed and made the USA a better place because of those changes? Please allow me to stick my fingers in my ears before you start talking; I don’t want to listen to reason. Okay, fingers are in ears, you can start talking again.”

Just because you’re extroverted doesn’t mean you can’t also be shallow and unintellectual. Plenty of extroverts have no problem showing others that they are incredibly smart and thoughtful: if people always think you’re shallow and unintellectual, maybe it’s because you’re actually shallow and unintellectual.

â€œWhy has the tragic death of these two brothers become a rallying point for right-wing conservatives?â€Because when two white kids are dead, no one really wants to have the discussion that maybe they were dead because they were drug dealers.

This is harsh because the only reason there weren’t female astronauts in 1962 was because NASA didn’t want there to be female astronauts in 1962. Russia put women into space early on, and NASA could’ve done the same thing, but they didn’t want to. That is neither respectful nor polite: it’s shitty and condescending.

Banning books is awful, but so is The Giving Tree. Even if you don’t think it’s sexist, it still promotes giving and giving and giving and giving to a selfish person who takes literally every last thing from you and gives you nothing in return, not even gratitude.

If anyone needs to “get over it”, it’s people defending her. Paula Deen said things that most people would be fired for saying. Then she got fired. Being unashamed of your racism is something that should have a damaging effect to your livelihood. Don’t like that? Get over it.

Understanding irony is hard for some people, but come ON. There isn’t ANYTHING incongruous about the graffiti. Graffiti ruins walls, and that’s exactly what the graffiti says. I can’t imagine anything less ironic.

Smash being a shitty show shouldn’t be an excuse to be snotty to someone in emails. She was perfectly cordial to you, and you were an ass. Did Theresa Rebeck steal your boyfriend or something? Why so rude?

1 Thing Your Should Know If You’re Going To Claim that the Catholic Church Does Not Hate Gay People1.
